[Mod] Refuge Town
download
Music (put in music/Town-Themes)
Well, it is actually the church town, I hope everything is finished.
This town replaces Stronghold, It is a kind of alternate branch of the Haven army, a renegade army, they are might oriented but should play very different from orcs, it's more like dwarfs actually, the more time you get to prepare yourself, the better it is.
Their racial skill is Spirituality. The creatures gains spirituality points when they cast spells, when the hero uses Prayers (War cries) and when they defend. they lose spirituality points when they are targeted by enemy spells or suffer from some negative effects.
Spirituality points make your creatures better protected against destructive and dark spells and more receptive to light spells, they also give better spells and new abilities. spirituality points do not absorb damage.

Hey,a couple of things I noticed in your mod:
1-Shouldn't Angels fit to the Church Town and Catapults to Haven?
2-Wouldn't be better to re-edit first 2 tiers and crusaders to this:
T1(melee):
Spearman->Pikeman/Halberder
Spearman-Archer with a spear(psaktha's and no symbol.Deeper blue surcoat.Black leather parts(at helm) have standart brown leather.
Pikeman-Marksman with a small shield(shield of dwarf kings) and a lance(dark riders),has a golden griffin at a red surcoat.
Halberder-Archer with a modified Beta Rider halberd(found at psaktha's Devaster,without dragon and red cloth),no shield,white surcoat with this,gold-cross pattern  .Black leather parts at helmet are made of mail.Helmet has brighter,gold metal.
(U can use Samurai NCF as base for this unit)
T2(ranged):
Novice->Monk/Fanatic
Novice-standart Haven Priest with black clothing and godric hood.No weapon nor cross.Shoots standart priest bolt.
Monk-Standart Haven priest with prown clothes,bald zealot head,no cross at front and black beard.Wields Zealot mace.Shoots standart priest bolt.
Fanatic->Alaric Model with Inquisitor helmet.No weapon,just cross.Shoots flaming bolt like one of the dwarf priests(don't remember witch,the non-alt upg. i think.
T5(Melee Caster):
Templar->Knight Protector/Grandmaster Templar
Templar(12 mana;Haste;Divine Strength)-Nicolai Vampire model,with footman head(blonde beard) and a templar cross surcoat.
Knight Protector(18 Mana;Deflect Missile;Endurance;Cleansing;->Nicolai Vampire model with golden armor,and a golden,vindicator helm no horns.Wields an inquisitor hammer.Weaker spells but higher def. and atk.
Grandmaster Templar(24 mana;Resurrection;Rightgeous Might;Cleansing)-Nicolai Vampire model with Squire helmet(no griffin symbol) a standart Templar Clothing and Sword of Might artifact as weapon).It has stronger spells but lower def and atk.
3-More clear textures for T6???

Really Cool!  
You fixed the town as well? Nice.
I'm currently busy with Dragon Age 2, but I will try this updated version very soon.
It seems awesome, can't wait to see your updated Stone Guardians.

No,I suppose,but you can PM(send personal message to) Radar to upload it somewhere for you.
EDIT:My opinion,replace the first upgrade.Non upg. and alternative are good,though need a bit more work.

Hmmm, you can use /music/a1/Town-Renegade.ogg for the town theme, it would fit the town well.

Great job with this town and all of the work you put into it!!
I'm surprised that the very first response you got after all of your hard work was one criticizing and suggesting to change it.

I didn't said I didn't like it,but there are some creatures that don't have good textures(T2a All three crusaders and guardians).I also see pikemen strange and Catapults don't fit to a religious town as angels would.(Pikemen,in fact,fit more to the Knight town and peasants to the Fanatic town).

I've just played a map with Refuge. It's a really good work , I have only a few complaints:
1. Many icons contain 'unnecessary pixels' which should be transparent. Not that this affects playing, but still...
2. Siege - it's Stronghold... You could at least put Renegade Archers on the towers...
3. Music - as I said before, I would set Town-Renegade as the town theme and Combat-Renegade as the combat theme (actually, I did it myself before playing).
4. Texts - there is a mistake in names: enlightment (should be enlightenment). Some spirituality texts are missing - they're still about the rage points.
5. A minor thing - Renegade's initial stats. The sum of initial stats of each hero is 5, except for the Barbarian who has spellpower 0 (the sum is 4). The Renegade also has spellpower 0 so the sum of their stats should be 4 too (and it's 5).
Though the faction is rather balanced, battles seem to be easy in late-game... A typical combat beginning (with the first upgrades):
Blazing Glories  divine guidance on the trebuchets
War Trebuchets destoying the strongest stacks
Vessels of Elrath attack or divine strenght on the marksmen
Renegade Marksmen range attack (and scatter shot becomes a powerful ability with a large number of the archers)

I'm not sure where lies the problem exactly. I know there is the blazing glory / trebuchet combo. actually, I'm just thinking, and if divine guidance was a spirituality bonus? (level 1 for example) so that glories can't use it right at the beginning of the battle? should let enough time for the opposing army to do something?

Well, that's a normal stronghold siege, the only difference is that some buildings in the castle (tier 3 dwellings for example) are retextured as they use the same models as in the town screen.

I don't know if there are more (probably not).

Sounds like a good idea... Or maybe another way - decreasing the initiative per creature bonus in defaultstats (if it can be a float number)...

did that already, it's still strong anyway in the 1st round. after that, seems to have less impact. I wonder if it has something to do with the random atb boost 0 - 0.25 at the start of the battle?

oh you are right, it's for the arcania town that I actually changed the shooters

does it refer to a mistake you spotted on that thread or in game? I did it on this thread, but it seems ok in my text files.
I will also need to bring the changes to the 4 factions mod. if you want to modify it to include conflux, you are welcome, though, it creates conflicts with arcania

I've noticed that too.

It could be... Maybe the atb values of all units are more averaged at the beginning of a batlle...

In game, in the name of the third prayer building and in the name of one prayer if I remember well.

Actually, I made Conflux + Refuge mod. I'll post the link on the 4 factions thread. Maybe I'll make a version including Oblivion and Nexus in the future...
